Palmer couldn't run to save his life.
Let me elaborate with some context: back in the day there was a big ‘Ben Vs. Carson’ debate. Since either was only a few years into their respective careers, it was still somewhat of an open question at the time. But as Ben started racking up playoff victories - and in particular SB appearances - Bengal fans had less and less ammo to work with. So, one of the things that was brought up in Carson’s favor back then was his Pro Bowl MVP award, as if that could even compare to a playoff win. We (Steeler fans) had a lot of fun with that.
I’m just saying that, while there’s currently no obvious divisional counterpart to compare him with (as Carson had in Ben), Lamar finds himself in a similar situation - holding a meaningless accolade to go with zero playoff wins. Poe has that Pro Bowl MVP to gloat over, at least!
